Thanks for reaching out about Chulbul. A veterinary visit is highly recommended to assess and provide a diagnostic/treatment plan. Providing heat support for sick animals in the 80-85 F range could help. Offering syringe feeding of a parrot hand-rearing formula could sustain them but a diagnosis needs to be achieve to effectively treat. Good luck.
